The FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) stands as a database dedicated to the monitoring of post-marketing drug safety and exercises a notable influence over FDA safety guidance documents, including the modification of drug labels. The quantity of cases stored within FAERS has experienced an exponential surge due to the refinement of submission techniques and adherence to standardized data protocols, making it a pivotal asset for the realm of regulatory science. While FAERS has predominantly focused on safety signal detection, the faers package acts as the intermediary, seamlessly bridging the gap between the FAERS database and the programming language R. Moreover, the faers package provides a unified methodology for the seamless execution of pharmacovigilance analysis, facilitating the integration of genetic tools in R. With an ultimate ambition towards precision medicine, it aspires to scrutinize the vast expanse of the human genome, revealing drug pathways that may be intricately tied to potentially functional, population-differentiated polymorphisms.
To install from Bioconductor, use the following code:
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) {
install.packages("BiocManager")
}
BiocManager::install("faers")You can install the development version of faers from GitHub with:
if (!requireNamespace("pak")) {
install.packages("pak",
repos = sprintf(
"https://r-lib.github.io/p/pak/devel/%s/%s/%s",
.Platform$pkgType, R.Version()$os, R.Version()$arch
)
)
}
pak::pkg_install("Yunuuuu/faers")FAERS is a database for the spontaneous reporting of adverse events and medication errors involving human drugs and therapeutic biological products. This package accelarate the process of Pharmacovigilance Analysis using FAERS.
library(faers)This will return a data.table reporting years, period, quarter, and file urls

#> xml_urls xml_file_sizeThe FAERS Quarterly Data files contain raw data extracted from the AERS database for the indicated time ranges. The quarterly data files, which are available in ASCII or SGML formats, include:
demo: demographic and administrative informationdrug: drug information from the case reportsreac: reaction information from the reportsoutc: patient outcome information from the reportsrpsr: information on the source of the reportsther: drug therapy start dates and end dates for the reported drugsindi: contains all “Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities” (MedDRA)
terms coded for the indications for use (diagnoses) for the reported drugsGenerally, we can use faers() function to download and parse all quarterly
data files from FAERS. Internally, the faers() function seamlessly utilizes
faers_download() and faers_parse() to preprocess each quarterly data file
from the FAERS repository. The default format was ascii and will return a
FAERSascii object. (xml format would also be okay , but presently, the XML
file receives only minimal support in the following process.)
Some variables has been added into specific field. See ?faers_parse for
details.
# # you must change `dir`, as the file included in the package is sampled
data1 <- faers(2004, "q1",
dir = system.file("extdata", package = "faers"),
compress_dir = tempdir()
)
#> Finding 1 file already downloaded: 'aers_ascii_2004q1.zip'data1
#> FAERS data from 1 Quarterly ascii file
#> Total reports: 100 (with duplicates)Furthermore, in cases where multiple quarterly data files are requisite, the
faers_combine() function is judiciously employed.
data2 <- faers(c(2004, 2017), c("q1", "q2"),
dir = system.file("extdata", package = "faers"),
compress_dir = tempdir()
)
#> Finding 2 files already downloaded: 'aers_ascii_2004q1.zip' and

#> 200: CNThe reac file provides the adverse drug reactions, where it includes the
“P.T.” field or the “Preferred Term” level terminology from the Medical
Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). The indi file contains the drug
indications, which also uses the “P.T.” level of MedDRA as a descriptor for the
drug indication. In this way, MedDRA was necessary to standardize this field
and add additional informations, such as System Organ Classes.

index of the MedDRA hierarchy data in the indi and reac field when
standardized. Additionally, the columns meddra_hierarchy_from, meddra_code,
and meddra_pt will also be added which provide standardized names of the
original PT (indi: indi_pt; reac: pt) (refer to ASC_NTS.pdf or ASC_NTS.docx
in the FAERS quarterly file for the meanings of the original names, most
original names will remain unchanged except for some names different between
FAERS quarterly files, see ?faers_parse for details). We can retrieve this
data using the faers_meddra() function. When we use faers_get() to retrieve
indi or reac data from the standardized FAERSascii object, the meddra
hierarchy columns are automatically added to the returned data.table.

#> 702: YOne limitation of FAERS database is duplicate and incomplete reports. There are many instances of duplicative reports and some reports do not contain all the necessary information. We deemed two cases to be identical if they exhibited a full concordance across drugs administered, and adverse reactions and but showed discrepancies in one or none of the following fields: gender, age, reporting country, event date, start date, and drug indications.
data <- faers_dedup(data)
#> → deduplication from the same source by retain the most recent report
#> → merging `drug`, `indi`, `ther`, and `reac` data
#> → deduplication from multiple sources by matching gender, age, reporting country, event date, start date, drug indications, drugs administered, and adverse reactionsdata

To mine the signals of “insulin”, we start by using the faers_filter()
function. In this function, the .fn argument should be a function that accepts
data specified in .field. It is important to note that .fn should always
return the primaryid that you want to keep.
To enhance our analysis, it would be advantageous to include all drug synonym names for insulin. These synonyms can be obtained by querying sources such as https://go.drugbank.com/ or alternative databases. Furthermore, we extract the brand names of insulin from the Drugs@FDA dataset, which can be easily obtained using the fda_drugs() function.
insulin_names <- "insulin"
insulin_pattern <- paste(insulin_names, collapse = "|")
fda_insulin <- fda_drugs()[
grepl(insulin_pattern, ActiveIngredient, ignore.case = TRUE)
]
#> → Using Drugs@FDA data from cached
#> '/home/biocbuild/.cache/R/faers/faers/fdadrugs/fda_drugs_data_2024-06-26.zip'
#> Snapshot date: 2024-06-26
#> Warning: One or more parsing issues, call `problems()` on your data frame for details,
#> e.g.:
#> dat <- vroom(...)
#> problems(dat)insulin_pattern <- paste0(
unique(tolower(c(insulin_names, fda_insulin$DrugName))),
collapse = "|"
)
insulin_data <- faers_filter(data, .fn = function(x) {
idx <- grepl(insulin_pattern, x$drugname, ignore.case = TRUE) |
grepl(insulin_pattern, x$prod_ai, ignore.case = TRUE)
x[idx, primaryid]
}, .field = "drug")
insulin_data
#> Standardized and De-duplicated FAERS data from 2 Quarterly ascii files
#> Total unique reports: 3Then, signal can be easily obtained with faers_phv_signal() which internally
use faers_phv_table() to create a contingency table and use phv_signal() to
do signal analysis specified in .methods argument. By default, all supported
signal analysis methods will be run, including “ror”, “prr”, “chisq”,
“bcpnn_norm”, “bcpnn_mcmc”, “obsexp_shrink”, “fisher”, and “ebgm”.
The most important argument for this function is .object, which should be a
de-duplicated FAERSascii object containing the data for the drugs or traits of
interest. Additionally, you must specify either .full, which represents the
background distributions data (usually the entire FAERS data), or you can
specify .object2, which should be the control data or another drug of interest
for comparison.
